The Pandemic has changed our life. How we work, interact and learn as social distancing guidelines have led to a more virtual existence, both personally and professionally. Although the vaccine is very much in place, the Pandemic has also changed how people approach their health and health care in both ways, positive and negative.

As predicted, the Pandemic has activated a wave of mental health issues. It’s managing addiction, social isolation, depression or stress that’s resulted from the Pandemic. Much of the world has come to a point during a pandemic where everything has stopped. Yet, 39% of respondents said they skipped or delayed health care checkups because of the Pandemic even though healthcare providers have gone to great lengths to ensure that keeping those appointments is safe for everyone.

The Pandemic has resulted in schools shut down all over the world. Globally over 1.2 billion students are out of the classroom. As a result, education has changed dramatically with the rise of E-learning, where teaching is undertaken remotely and on digital platforms. Researchers have suggested that online learning has been shown to increase retention of information and take less time. In response to demand, many online learning platforms provide free access to their services for helping students. 

Pandemic also affects the workplace, organization, and workers. When the lockdown declared, organizations and industries started facing issues mainly on the people-disconnect issue front as they returned to their homes. 80 % of people from the organized sector went homeless overnight. Many organizations offer work from home. 

As far as this Pandemic has its pros, there are also many cons of Pandemic. People are not able to go outside and earn something for the living of themselves and their families. In this situation, it is hard for many people to run their houses. As this Pandemic is extending, people are losing their hopes for living an everyday life again.

Moreover, research has shown us that the pandemic situation significantly improves air quality in different cities across the world, lessens water pollution and noise, and reduces the pressure on tourist destinations and corruption, which may assist with restoring the ecological system.

Throughout the Pandemic, we have seen both benefits and drawbacks of being shut in with our families. And this certainly has added stress for parents who have to deal with remote learning situations for school-going children.

Some people reported a positive experience with their families in such a close area. Overall, many of them said they feel closer to their family. And many agreed that pandemics made them value their relationships. On the other hand, some are having terrible expecting and have faced many losses. All hopes remain on the vaccine.
